Large-flowered bellwort is distinguished by its large, pendulous, lily-like yellow flowers, which, along with the foliage, create a distinctive droopy appearance. Each bloom emerges in the spring months, decorating the plant in April and May. The generous size of both the blossoms and leaves contributes to the characteristic sag due to their mass. It is advisable to apply a mulch layer around large-flowered bellwort, such as pine needles, which serves as a practical measure against slugs. Characteristically, the plant thrives in a native perennial habitat within its familial group, the Colchicaceae.
